Granzella is an awesome developer, along with Lockwood, Hellfire, nDreams, Heavy Water, Digital Leisure and others, they deserve to have their work noticed here n be directly thanked for it in the start of the thread.

I feel it shows that you care a lot more when providing pictures of the actual gameplay n such, verses just writing. It shows people who never experienced it what you are talking about.

​Thank you Granzella! (continued)

The second half of the Kikai Emperor battle was a pain if you didn't have boost, or were using free items, n it could still be tough even with bought items, the blue bots that would ram you were quite annoying n could easily mean your death in combination with the Kikai Emperor's magnet, if you were distracted by anything.

n yes, I did die a few times at first when by myself. That green ring of light on the floor is where you died previously, it would revive your health to full if you pressed 'X' over it.

The Kikai Emperor's magnet was extremely irritating until you learned how to play the endgame. If you were anywhere near him, it would pull you in, regardless of what you were wearing, then he would grab you and shake the daylight out of you until you were left dazed n stunned. Perhaps his claw couldn't close on you? or more likely Granzella thought it was best to not have our avatars get crushed by it with blood gushing everywhere.

The announcement for the Kikai Emperor's 'Curtain Fire' (seen below) meant one thing, either get to the middle behind him or get far to the outside. It's the same curtain fire that the Honeycomb hackers would activate, n it kills you pretty quick.

Once behind the Kikai Emperor during the curtain fire, you could finish him off, if your attack was strong enough (very strong), in one charged hit. Either that or being very quick with several hits.

​Thank you Granzella! (continued)

After defeating the Kikai Emperor in the second half, you would appear (again) in a room with him and a bunch of blue bots standing around. I will search for other pix that I know i have somewhere of the endgame past this, it's a bit of a movie at one point as well. How many times did I fight the Emperor? Many, I lost count, before grinding on the stairs, lol. I beat the Emperor many many times, with n without others n friends.

​Thank you Granzella! (continued)

This game was 'Epic' for Home n I would really like to see Lockwood (or rebuild Mercia) or any other developer create something even close to this. I would be impressed. Yes, VeeMee has No Man's Land, but that is $50 for the top gear, not everybody likes that game in the first place n it really is not as interesting as this (I personally would never bother with it, maybe for wardrobe, but not to actually play it). If any developer makes anything close to this as another event in Home, I'm sure everybody will be impressed. Home is going to be on the PS3 for many many years, there is plenty of time.

My actual spot on the leaderboard is 44th, Granzella bumped everyone up to #1 who got 9,999,999, n received all rewards for the game leaderboard.

n no you hardly get any points using the arm (idk y it's not easy to fight with), I just wanted to use it n have something different next to my name on the leaderboard, lol. I'm sure it's only meant as a support thing when in groups with friends.

The difference between Home n other online social worlds with avatars, is that Home actually integrates some pretty cool games. I haven't checked out 2nd life recently, but I doubt they have anything functioning like this game did, nothing near it most likely. and IMVU? lmao! are you kidding me? they don't make anything for games (maybe sex games), that place is avatars only, n a total waste of time in my opinion.

The games made for Home that are in Home, (n yes, even No Man's Land counts, some people still like it), show every other social avatar world what they are lacking.

Real games in a social avatar world. If Home was just avatars, furniture n spaces with no games, I wouldn't play it, period. It would just be too boring for me.

Granzella showed us potential here, n if we could add memory to our PS3's, there wouldn't be the load times that we have in Home.

The blue ring of light with the angel above it is where you would start, to participate you needed to have the starry bikini and/or celestial costume (both in combination made getting the starry bed very easy).

This can still be done for the rewards at the Glittering Sands *private space*, as far as I know (it may have changed since this posting).

The starry bikini, (seen above) such a lovely n elegant design!

The celestial bikini and the starry bed reward (yes, this bed was modified, normally you can only sit on it).

Thank you for this event Granzella!

This thread is open n welcomes anyone to post about any Granzella events, even past events that are said to return next year, please provide pictures!

If you feel up to it, you could also post about the upcoming 'Bon' event along with whatever bit I post.
